I love this song, especially sung by Emily, I think you could make parallels with modern society and the lyrics. The addictive, consumerist nature of our culture can is "the rose has died because you picked it, I believe that brandy's mine"

We also seem to capitalise on fear and bigotry often within the news media "And the world is getting flatter and the sky is falling all around"
